Crab Cake Ingredients

Method

Crab Cake Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crab Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, gently combine the lump crab meat, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay seasoning, and green onion. Be careful not to break up the crab meat too much.

  2. 2

    Add Bindings

    Fold in the breadcrumbs and beaten egg into the crab mixture. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix until just combined.

  3. 3

    Form the Cakes

    Shape the mixture into patties, about 1 inch thick. You should have around 4 crab cakes.

  4. 4

    Cook the Crab Cakes

    Heat a skillet over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Cook the crab cakes for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and heated through.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Sandwich

    Toast the brioche buns. Assemble the sandwich by placing a crab cake on the bottom half of the bun, adding lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, and a generous dollop of Creole mayo (see below for recipe). Top with the other half of the bun.
